Kanuni na matumizi ya sensorer za fiber optic zilizosambazwa-INNO

Katika miaka ya hivi karibuni, fiber optic sensing technology has developed rapidly and received increasing attention, gradually becoming another major fiber optic application technology industry after the development of fiber optic communication industry. Miongoni mwao, distributed fiber optic sensing is currently one of the hot research topics both domestically and internationally.

Distributed fiber optic sensing measurement is a technology that utilizes the one-dimensional spatial continuity characteristics of optical fibers for measurement. Fiber optic serves as both a sensing element and a transmission element, allowing for continuous measurement of environmental parameters distributed along the entire length of the fiber, while obtaining the spatial distribution status and temporal information of the measured data. Fiber optic iliyosambazwa sensing technology mainly includes optical time-domain reflection and frequency-domain reflection technology based on fiber Raman scattering or Brillouin scattering (R/B-OTDR/OFDR), polarized optical time-domain reflection technology based on fiber Rayleigh scattering (P-OTDR), long-distance optical interference technology, and quasi distributed fiber Bragg grating multiplexing technology.

Principles of Kihisi cha Fiber Optic kilichosambazwa Teknolojia

Distributed Fiber Optic Sensing Technology Based on Backscattering

Wakati mawimbi ya mwanga yanaenea katika nyuzi za macho, they generate backscattered light, ikiwa ni pamoja na Rayleigh kutawanyika, Raman akitawanyika, na Brillouin kutawanyika. By detecting the backscattering generated by various points along the fiber optic cable, the relationship between the backscattered light and the measured (kama vile joto, mkazo, mtetemo, nk.) can be used to achieve distributed fiber optic temperature sensing based on Raman scattering.

Measuring the anti Stokes Raman reflection signal in optical fibers can achieve distributed kuhisi joto. Since the 1980s, utafiti wa kina umefanywa juu ya teknolojia ya kipimo cha kikoa cha macho cha ishara za kutawanya za anti Stokes Raman ndani na nje ya nchi..

Kwa kutumia athari ya halijoto ya mtawanyiko wa nyuma wa fiber optic, uwanja wa halijoto katika kila nukta katika nafasi ambayo nyuzinyuzi iko hurekebisha ukubwa wa taa ya kurudisha nyuma ya anti Stokes kwenye nyuzi.. Akisi ya saa ya kikoa cha macho (OTDR) teknolojia ya fiber optic hutumiwa kuchunguza na kupata pointi za joto zilizopimwa. Teknolojia hii ina kanuni rahisi ya kipimo na gharama ya chini. Kwa sasa, inaweza kufikia umbali wa kipimo wa juu 10 km na imetumika kwa kiwango fulani. Hata hivyo, inahitaji nguvu ya juu, vyanzo fupi vya mwanga wa mpigo na vifaa vya ukuzaji wa mawimbi ya kasi ya juu na kupata, and its temperature measurement accuracy and spatial resolution are limited by device performance and cost.

Katika miaka ya hivi karibuni, optical frequency domain reflection technology (OFDR) has also experienced rapid development. OFDR technology uses a power modulated continuous laser as the light source, so the backward Raman scattering power is nearly 2000 times higher than that of OTDR technology under the same incident conditions. Although the signal is modulated at high speed, the frequency band is narrow and easy to remove noise through filtering, which can greatly improve the signal-to-noise ratio of the sensing signal. It has greater advantages in spatial resolution, detection accuracy, and real-time performance.

Distributed fiber optic temperature/stress sensing based on Brillouin scattering

When using narrow linewidth continuous laser to pump single-mode fibers, Brillouin scattering is a major nonlinear effect. The scattering performance of Brillouin scattering can be described by the magnitude of the Brillouin scattering frequency shift, which is related to the phonon rate of the medium, and this rate depends on temperature and strain. Distributed fiber optic temperature and stress sensing can be achieved by obtaining temperature or stress information through spectral analysis and locating the parameter field distribution using pulsed light.

The distributed fiber optic sensing technology based on stimulated Brillouin scattering has high accuracy and spatial resolution for measuring single distributed parameters such as temperature and stress, and is the most promising and breakthrough technology developed in recent years. It generally adopts a Pump Probe structure, known as Brillouin optical time-domain analysis (BOTDA). Kwa sasa, distributed fiber optic sensing technologies based on stimulated Brillouin scattering mainly include BOTDA based on pulse laser pumping, BOTDA based on correlated continuous waves, and BOTDA based on dark pulse laser pumping.

Distributed sensing based on polarized light time-domain reflection

Polarized time-domain reflection (POTDR) sensing is a novel sensing technology that achieves distributed fiber sensing by detecting changes in polarization state in optical fibers. POTDR technology is developed on the basis of OTDR technology, and its working principle is that the backward Rayleigh scattering light in the tested single-mode fiber contains additional information about the polarization state changing along the fiber. By coupling linearly polarized light into a fiber optic, Rayleigh scattering occurs when light pulses are transmitted in the fiber. During the scattering process, the polarization state of the light changes with the action of external parameters on the fiber, and the polarization of the light is a function of position. Kwa hiyo, by detecting the polarization characteristics of backscattered light, the temporal and spatial distribution of polarization characteristics in the fiber optic can be obtained, thereby obtaining the measured field distribution. Distributed fiber optic sensing technology has excellent measurement accuracy, kutegemewa, and dynamic measurement characteristics, and is inherently safe and easy to lay in engineering. Kwa hiyo, it is widely used in civil engineering, anga, nguvu, petrochemical, medical and other fields.

Zaidi ya hayo, pipeline leaks can be detected and located through sensing related technologies. Distributed fiber optic sensing technology is very suitable for long-distance pipeline leakage detection due to its ability to obtain continuous spatial and temporal distribution information of the measured physical field. Aidha, kuhisi fiber optic iliyosambazwa technology can also be used to monitor the strain and bending status of high-pressure pipelines in real time.
